On one of our cloudy-but-not-rainy days, we decided to see Burnt Cape, a seemingly barren peninsula, but with arctic plants. We also wanted to see Cape Onion, beside Ship Cove, a community nearby. However, my car decided to go to Cape Onion first, by taking a wrong turn.

Ship Cove Cemetary at Cape Onion |
Cape Onion was a magnificant sight, with a three-way ocean view, rocky outcrops, and several small and large islands in view. However, it was still mostly cloudy, but when the sun shone (however briefly), I took some photographs of the cemetary located on the cape. The one house in the cove, evidently the doctor's house, has a fantastic view of the water.
After visiting Burnt Cape Ecological Reserve, we decided to return to Cape Onion for the sunset.

This time we were treated to a very windy but beautiful sunset. Cape Onion was one of the unexpected discoveries that we love to find when visiting a location.
